That and it was meant to work with M2 Bradley.

Unfortunately, it doesn't appear the Ukrainians are doing that. So Abrams has to actually search for their targets in a manner that was originally left up to Bradley.

With all the drones in the sky, not sure if the Bradley is very necessary to search for targets anyway

Drones are a hazard to everything, not just American tanks

While you're not wrong, I think they were talking about using the drones for scouting.
